Decolonizing the Classroom

As part of the exhibition Regional Fictions, participating artist Julia Barbosa Landois will moderate a panel discussion addressing decolonization in educational settings. How can educators facilitate decolonization as an internal, intellectual process, and how can art play an integral role? Our guests will discuss things like unpacking dominant historical narratives, fostering respect during difficult conversations, rethinking classroom power dynamics, and nurturing an environment of curiosity, justice, and love. Attendees will go home with educational materials and may win some art goodies from the Amplifier Foundation.
